Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation-Induced Modulation of Functional Connectivity in Healthy Controls: A TMS-EEG Graph Study.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe combination of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG) enables direct interaction with the brain while recording the resulting neural activity, offering a unique opportunity to understand the brain's functional dynamics. In this study, TMS-EEG was employed to examine the effects of TMS on functional network connectivity through graph theory parameters.
methodsA total of 29 healthy controls underAuthor: Please check funding information and confirm its correctness.went a single-pulse TMS-EEG protocol targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. Three graph theory parameters summarizing functional network properties (i.e., connectivity strength, clustering coefficient, and characteristic path length) were analyzed before and after TMS application.
resultsTMS-single pulse administration over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of healthy controls was associated with a significant increase in connectivity strength and clustering coefficient, and a significant decrease in the characteristic path length parameters. These changes are consistent with a shift towards a small-world network organization.
conclusionThese findings provide insight into the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying TMS-induced changes and could have potential therapeutic implications.
